  1. But it must be possible - I saw it happen on TV! :lurk:
  2. Nope you are coming the wrong route. I-95 should only be in play for a 1-2 miles maximum. If you come into PA on I-70 then follow I-76 east until Conshohocken PA, just after King of Prussia. Then pick up I-476 south/east and follow until you reach I-95 south. Follow I-95 south a very short way (like 2 miles) until you see Rt 322 east over Commodore Barry Bridge. Follow Rt 322 east towards Glassboro NJ and then exit onto Rt 55 south. This will have you 25mins out of Millville at this point. By doing this you bypass downtown Philadelphia and the usual I-95 mess. Give Tom a call and ask for a better way if in doubt. We have ways to help you get around the traffic. The villas do not have trailer parking so you can leave your trailer outside my garage for the night. Whoever is here Tuesday will join me/Shane/Robin/family at Andreas for dinner.

  4. I don't have a specific recommendation but I would call the Caterham Canada importer. Definitely will not be local to you but will likely have picked up local-to-you owners who they may be able to put the question to or even better, connect you with other local owners. You may want to paste this question also in the Canada section of the forum way below and search that section of the forum for people who are located in Toronto. Its actually a pity there is a pesky border in the way but your closest dealer is only 1-1.5 hours away in Buffalo. Non-starter unfortunately as trying to get a Caterham back and forth for service is a no go thanks to customs protocols. The other option which a lot of us have done around the NY metro is find a good race mechanic or old school exotic brand mechanic. They may not know the cars but they have the right mindset to work on the car. I would suggest you be your own parts sourcer - call Caterham UK parts directly - they will arrive in a week that way. No suggestions on paint place sorry.
  5. This looks like the final participation list. I suspect the awkward dates played into the numbers but still it was disappointing to originally have 30 commitments drop off to 18 on the Friday (once Stevie gets around to signing up) and 15 on Thursday. Still, the weather looks like its cooperating. The Wednesday fireworks display that are being put on especially for us will be spectacular. The dinners will be great and the laughter will be very much encouraged. If you are arriving on Wednesday, make sure you read your instructions on where to go initially. It will likely be heavier traffic than normal with all the firework visitors. Quick reminder: If arriving before 3pm - Head to Lightning pits. We will head to karting around 3pm at the back of the Lightning pits If arriving between 3pm and 4.30pm - come and see us at karting or head to the clubhouse for a drink and relax in air conditioned surroundings If arriving after 4.30pm - head to the clubhouse to join us for a cool drink, possibly a swim, and dinner kicking off around 6pm-6.30pm If you are still around at 9pm then fireworks will be happening at the Officers Club at the back of the Thunderbolt circuit. Those with villas should be able to enjoy from their balcony/terrace. Those with pit suites just have to step outside into the pit area. For those driving Thursday at Thunderbolt, keep an eye out for an email from Don Fauerbach with final start times for the day. And if anyone is there Tuesday, see me at the garage and we can organize a track walk as I don't think any are being used that day plus we can get a group together for dinner.

  6. Shane - at the Dayton Air Force museum, make sure you sign in with the desk for the Presidential and Experimental Hangar tour as soon as you arrive. Time slot availability goes very quickly - usually within 1.5 hours of museum opening. Only a limited number are allowed out to the connected twin hangars on the base, separate from the main museum complex. Also consider you will need ID for everyone for that hangar tour since you are entering an active military base. It was one of the most amazing places I have been (twice) - must see.

  10. The best kind of lobster roll too! Jay - while you are at it, bring Pickles to NJMP with you next week. Good humored chaps are always prized and I suspect I will need it after Wednesday's test session for a few misbehaving cars...
  11. Well done - I think that adds a nice bit of flash under the bonnet. nice upgrade!
  12. Now now Bob, i don’t recall ever doing anything to your butt? That’s not my style anyway. It’s those people from California that are into such stuff. Possibly Westfield owners from Seattle too?🤭 Despite that aspersion, I am really happy that you had a great drive and appreciate the subtlety that different seven types bring. The nimbleness of a Caterham over the lardy ass of the stalker is quite a contrast. I think you will get s great experience from it as a driver and definitely improve your skills. [emoji6] Next year you need to come at join us for the sevens event as with your humor you would fit so perfectly into the laugh a minute we have. I promise we will not bust your chops as badly as we bust Shane’s! [emoji16] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. I am confused. Those in the for sale list that I describe just above the link to the original ad as Caterham are in fact Caterham, whether it be owner-built kit or dealer built kit. Those that are not Caterham are described with the appropriate labels - Westfield, Stalker, replica, etc. It’s ok having the various Seven brands plus Lotus on this one forum as the originators of this forum saw its purpose as being Inclusive of all sevens - originals and replicas. Can you give me an example in that list of something called a Caterham that is not a Caterham in your mind? As for the CSR I think you need to price what a new one is to evaluate the relative price. Given how much Caterham prices have dropped over the last two years (at least in the US) I think you may be surprised what a brand new one may cost plus be customized to your exact spec. Then again there is a lengthy wait list for a new kit build so the CSR offers immediate gratification if you want something now. The CSR is a remarkable car with its IRS. It will out handle a regular de dion Caterham and is incredibly quick point to point. It feels like a big car to drive because of the suspension sophistication. I love mine. It is very tricky on the limit with the 15 inch wheels on it but if you are doing a lot of track work then I believe it needs the modifications to take a 13 inch wheel. I have never driven the CSR200 (I have a 275) but I have driven enough Caterham’s over the years to think it would be a perfect touring package. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. I had to read this a few times to work out your meaning. I know their Hayabusa is their signature car but could you buy a regular Duratec kit through them and build yourself? Not that I have ever found. You can get automatic notification emails for private messages, administrators or visitors to your profile but seemingly not specific threads (or countries within that thread). If you want a seriously want a Caterham then you will want to put the effort in to know them before you buy. They are not your regular car and the more you know will help your ownership experience. BTW - did you find Terry's Caterham CSR200 in AB for sale yet?

  16. For the record I will usually update the Ebay/etc thread in the for sale forum each Sunday morning. Sometimes infrequently it will be a saturday update if I am travelling Sunday. There are about 4-6 weekends a year when I do get to update because I am doing another 40,000 mile trip round the world. The areas I have searchbot do his deed are: Ebay Craigslist Hemmings Classiccars.com VRG Wirewheel Bringatrailer racecars.com The search terms are Caterham, Westfield, Stalker, Ultralite, Locost, Lotus 7, Lotus Seven, and Birkin There are 3 sellers I exclude for reasons that they have a reputation that i do not want to associate with. I also exclude dealers on the basis that they are quite capable of doing their own marketing - try the manufacturer directly - Caterham USA, Birkin USA or Manik (Westfield) or Brunton (Stalker) Individual sellers who list their own ad on the forum will only appear in my list if they advertize on one of the listed sites. Its not perfect and does miss some ads but there is a pretty good range each week. Now if you want a 620R then I have only seen one of those come up for sale ever in the US and Matt bought it. I think you have to order that through a dealer as used ones are going to be few and far between. There is a Canadian equivalent to Craigslist called Kikiji or something like that. You could run your own searches on that site.
  17. Ummmm no...not correct. We don't have to order booze - you do. First night at Clubhouse has a bar where you purchase what you want. The subsequent nights at Hotel Charlesworth and Andreas are BYOB [as mentioned in the event notes] so I suggest you pick some up on the way and keep it chilled in your room fridge. I will also note that Hotel Charlesworth is located in the dry town of Fortescue so the closest place to purchase if you forget will be about 15-20 minutes away back in Millville. So a friendly heads up to remind people of this fact! The trophies were done last month. Things were changed this year. Some people will like them. Some people will not like them. One person is absolutely going to hate me.
  18. Hi Mike - Really good to hear from you. Sorry to hear that you sold the Caterham but I know it is going to a good new home. Alas, I have the same sickness, possibly worse than you given the number of restoration/refreshes I have underway (refer the footer below this post for my tales of oops). I always liked your eclectic tastes in cars. What projects do you have underway currently? Cheers mike
  19. Thats great to hear Bob. I think you are going to enjoy that Caterham very much. Congratulations on the new addition to the man cave! :cooldude:
  20. Hold on, I missed something here. You bought Mike G's Caterham? What did he replace it with? Or did he downgrade back to a Porsche? Definitely get the instruction if you are going to try out HPDE. It keeps you safe and makes you a more skilled driver. Thats why Shane went 'wrong'.

  22. What fabrication Roman? You had a complete car last time I saw? Is this a big modifcation/upgrade I missed?
  23. Well it did remind me of you! Quick in a straight line.... :jester: I am so going to strap that 360 camera onto your Stalker!
  24. Thunderbolt Circuit This is a 360 degree video. For those who have not used one before then: 1) Click through this video into youtube itself. 2) Play the video 3) move the camera around by (a) the arrows top left, or (b) clicking your mouse on the video playing and dragging to look behind, up, sides or down If you move the camera to point down slightly you will see I overlaid a track map on the passenger seat below the speed. You may have to move the view slightly right to read the various captions anyway as the youtube screen size is narrower than my video edit app. Sorry no sound as this camera does not have an external mic. Time: 0:00 Leaving the pits - where to line up to await going out on circuit 0:23 Pit lane and the turn onto the circuit 0:40 Leaving the pits and the blend line you should follow merging onto track 0:52 For the next two warm up laps I have added text commentary on some of the more tricky corners and what you should not do. 5:35 Some clean laps at a good moderate pace. There was too much traffic to be really quick but this will show the various lines. I deliberately tried lots of different lines in the Devil to show you what happens - the answer is that you are fairly safe because the speed is relatively low. Experimentation will teach you a bit in this corner. Just watch the speed on the decreasing radius corner on entry into the Devil. 10:38 I lap a Stalker. You should have seen it lean in the corners. The brake dust and smell coming off this one was incredible. Quick in a straight line though. 19:19 I play follow Tom so you can see the track lines from a different perspective. 23:50 Returning to the pits and back of pits
